Welcome to Orvilles Discotheque: a synth-drenched concept album brought to you by indie singer-songwriter from Somerset. Set in a world slightly left of reality, the record tells the story of a flawed disco-enthused antihero and his romantic travails. The album charts the stumble and fall of a self-obsessed dancing antihero and his romantic travails. The single sets the scene of the first time the albums protagonist, Orville, sees his new romantic interest, Eugenie, whilst performing in a disco club night; fascinated by her dance moves that include hula hoop hips, loose helicopter arms, and whatever else. The lyricism blends self-deprecating humour with poetry, whilst the sound marks another step in the continued evolution of Tuplins musical vision, incorporating his lyrical songwriting and intricate storytelling within a loosely defined genre of indie disco - or even dark disco and devilish disco that he references in the song itself. Orvilles Discotheque is his fourth album, following his independently released debut I Dreamt I Was An Astronaut in 2017, Pink Mirror (2019), and Violet Waves (2020) both on Trapped Animal Records.
